Can anyone tell me how a bamboo area rug would do on carpet?

I think a bamboo rug is a great idea for under neath a dining room table. Not only are they durable, they won't curl up at the edges when placed on carpets (like some area rugs might)

The trick to not getting the rug to bunch up is to adhere heavy carpet tape and fasten it to the rug. The edges won't curl up.

There are different types of bamboo area rugs. You can get the natural bamboo weave like this natural bamboo area rug or a bamboo shag in a deep color to hide stains, etc. like this coffee bean shag bamboo area rug.

There is a lot of choice when it comes to bamboo.
